On August 17, 2015 a Request for Proposal (RFP) was sent to 80 vendors and advertised on the Sedgwick County website for a move-in ready building for the Metropolitan Area Building and Construction Department (MABCD) and the Metropolitan Area Planning Department (MAPD). On September 29, 2015, county purchasing received 16 responses for this RFP. Of those 16, four were viable responses while the other 12 were a “no proposal ” response. There was a thorough evaluation of the responses with County Commissioners as well as staff. Based on the needs outlined in the RFP and the responses received, it was staff ’s recommendation that all responses be declined.
Following executive session at today ’s meeting the commission voted in favor of staff ’s recommendation declining all responses. To view the meeting where this action was taken go to www.sedgwickcounty.org/commissioners/bocc_meetings.asp.
